In love with my Zune 120
So now that I've actually got some music, pictures and movies on this thing, as well as a nice case that actually covers the screen. I took a couple of pictures, which you can check out by clicking on any of the thumbnails below.
The Zune has landed
Ever since I ordered it last week, I've been dying to get my Zune 120 in the mail. Well, today it finally arrived. I charged it up, wiped the BS that was on it and uploaded my music and a test movie. And yes, that movie is DOA: Dead or Alive, the best bad movie ever made. Why? Nanobots, dude. Nanobots.

So I bought a Zune
I've been really good about watching my funds lately and as a treat to myself for making my goal (I won't get into it much, but I'll say that my bank account is looking pretty damn good), I bought one of those 120gb second generation Zunes. You know, this thing.
For the most part, I've used iPods. I got an iPod mini at first, to see if I liked the idea of an mp3 player. I liked it, but space became an issue shortly after (those things only held 4gbs when they came out), then I upgraded to a 30gb iPod video when they came out. Now, 30gb just doesn't cut it. With the huge storage space of the Zune, and its sexy screen, I'm finally ready to jump ship. Watching movies while on the plane with my iPod sucks, so I'm hoping it's better with the Zune (you can turn it sideways for 16:9).
So, yeah. Anyone want to buy an iPod?
